Abstract Detailed Fourier analysis of line shapes has been carried out in hexagonal zirconium metal in the cold-worked and partially recovered states. X-ray diffraction profiles from the fault-unaffected 10.0, 00.2, 11.0, 11.2 and 00.4 and fault-affected 10.1, 10.3, 20.1, 10.2 and 20.2 reflections have been recorded using a counter diffractometer for this purpose. The line shape analysis has shown small anisotropy as regards the domain sizes and strains, the average values being of the order of 280 Å and 2.08×10−3 respectively in the cold-worked state with a small recovery at a higher temperature. Least-square solution applied to fault-affected reflections has yielded very small concentration of deformation faults with a negligible proportion of growth faults. Results are found to be consistent with earlier X-ray measurements and recent electron microscope investigations on zirconium.
